Thanks to everyone who came out this afternoon to Òrain Luaidh agus Gnìomhachdan Eile / Waulking Songs & Other Things and shared their teachings, talents and enthusiasm. We had a great time, and kicked off the afternoon with a young piper from the Ryan Russell Memorial Pipe Band. Tradition bearers taught us about the history and methods of tweed making and waulking songs, paired with a lively demonstration - creel, chamber pot, tweed and all!

We saw a fantastic Gaelic skit performed about the Golden fish, a fisherman and a wife who wanted it all. And to close the day, members of our talented community shared some poems, tunes, and dancing.

There are lots of great events coming up to celebrate Gaelic language and culture in Ontario! On March 28, join us at Òrain Luaidh agus Gnìomhachdan Eile / Waulking Songs & Other Things. The ever popular Cànan agus Òran is set for April 11, and the Ontario School of Piping & Drumming will be holding a Conversational Gaelic Immersion Program this coming June. Details and registration is available for all these events, and you can get more information on our Events page here.
